@Nebuc72 that is really sch an impressive time, well done.
I think I'm at the limit of my skill - going to try and find an hour to pour over some replays and try and find a bit of time at the weekend, but I think I know what needs to be done but just can't put it into action.
@Stringerbell, I can only applaud all the information given by
@newmedia_dev as he has absolutely nailed the VR experience and it’s minor draw backs.
I have found the VR2 game play so totally immersive and enjoyable, I for 1 would never go back to 2D.
🤪🥳🤠
Yes I know you're a big fan, i'm still weighing it up, I've found some pace recently so not sure if I want to upset the apple cart with changes.
Disastrous few races this evening. When it goes wrong in race B it goes terribly wrong with the groups of cars at high speed. Never fully comfortable, having to ease off to avoid collisions or make mistakes and get swapped = race over.
Question: if someone is already starting to spin out and you unintentionally tap them, making things worse, is waiting the right thing to do or would you just plough on?
Was in a lobby with
@Barney Da Dog for a couple. What did you make of it, mate?
Yeah in these sprint races in Gr3, once you're off line or make a mistake it's so easy for 5 or 6 cars to fly past you.
Case by case on the contact mate I think mate, such a judgement call with things like that and I'm still finding my way as well.
One late last night...one this morning. Both were very underwhelming performances on my behalf ☹️
There is much learning being done...but that's why I jumped in when I did (about 50% done in the Menu Books and same in the Licenses)...to learn what I don't yet know and need to concentrate on moving forward.
I definitely need to register further in advance for each race to get some more trial laps done with the standard car before the race.
QUESTION: What's the best way to get some practice laps in (i.e. before the actual race, in the car if I don't already own it)? Can I set a qualifying time in Sport Mode without registering for a race?
haha it's a learning process mate, when I stared my dailies I had zero idea of anything that was going on, the experience will come quick and then addiction starts
Yes you can 100% spend as much time in free qualifying as you want - If I remember rightly, select enter with rented car but instead of clicking enter again, click on the stopwatch next to the enter button and it will put you into qualifying without a countdown.
Good luck in the races, looking forward to hearing about your first win!!!!
I'm happy to give more advice but i'm wary of falling into the trap I did with
@Lightsider74 where I gave him my beginner advice only to find out he had way more experience and was faster than me, so I was sitting here teaching him to suck eggs!!!!
Yeah it's tense in race B because I like to pass really clean, so you approach a squabbling pack carefully but risk the guys behing bombing in on you as they are far less careful. See the race i linked to last night, I was pretty careful and made up 5 spots in the last lap but could easily have been barged off by the aggressive guy behind.
Yeah there are not a lot of places to pass here, I find you just have to wait for a mistake and then capitalise. Although I must say I feel like the dive bombing/push to pass seems better this week with the wider track and less slow corners than it was at Daytona and RBR the last few weeks.
But it does always make me nervous when you know you have to brake early due to the congestion in front and you just feel that the guy behind is going to take the normal braking point and sling it down the inside via the side of your car 🤦♂️
One thing I've really focused on this week is giving up positions unless it's lap 4 onwards and then just tucking in behind, this has definitely kept me in races where I think my previous belligerent nature would have got me spun out.
